[ruby-core:111514] Re: Data support for versions before 3.2.0

Hey Victor, thanks for answering.

Thanks, I'll take a look at backports. If you need some help, let me know. =
I think it is important have an easy way keep us going creating code using =
the Data features and run it on older versions, even if we need to create a=
 small gem to do it
